so thats what bit me when i was asleep.....

Doubtful. These tend to stay outdoors and are practically incapable of biting humans.

I've handled them many times.

amazinggg, what lens did you use for this?

The usual one I use.

very nice! Can I bother you to recommend a nice telephoto lens? all i have is the basic lens that came with my t1i and a 50mm :< i dont know what good lenses i should look out for and Im not cool enough to do research haha

For a cheaper lens, I've heard this one is solid: http://the-digital-picture.com/Revi.....ns-Review.aspx

I have one of these I found on eBay http://the-digital-picture.com/Revi.....ns-Review.aspx It's alright, just wish it had image stabilization.

O.O Its face reminds me of a seal...It's adorable <3

Pwitty!

I think these 'unable to bite folks' spiders are what has gotten me over some of my arachnophobia. It's the unknown and 'very painful bite' spiders that still make me squirm.
I use the term 'acute arachnophobia', now. And have handled MANY jumping spiders I find in my house, often teasing them with a laser pointer first. They chase it like a cat! Then I gently get it to jump into my hand and I let it go outside.
Unless it's a summer where the complex gets ant infestations. Then any/all jumpers get free room and board in the hopes they'll eat said ants for us. ;P


And you said 6 eyes? I only see four. Could you tell me where the 2 I'm missing are?

Three eye clusters with two eyes each. It can be hard to differentiate the individual eyes on the two side pairs, but they are there.

Cool! It's very alien looking, even for a spider.

this is an impressive shot

Awesome! I've only ever found a spitting spider once before. What's your camera setup?

Currently using a Canon T3i with a 100mm USM f/2.8 Macro lens.

I have the same camera with the 60mm! :D That's what all of my fursuit photos have been shot with lately.
